Hello,
nearly 3 weeks ago the dentist extracted my third molar teeth due to infection. Yesterday I discovered white stuff and tried to pulled it. It started to bleed, and bleeding continued for 5 mins. I’m really very worried ? Why is it not healing? Please can anyone let me know ?.
 
Hi Rafia,

It takes months for the wound in an extraction area to fully heal. It is a very long process. The secretion of the white thing (probably fibrin) and some light bleeding is not an alarming signal at all.
 
Thank you so much for the reply. It means a lot :)
